Personal Accomplishments
- Scaled out the valve system circuitry to handle multiple valves and added additional screws to minimize leakage. Link to Image below shows this for 2 valves (will add 4 more this week).
- Implemented parallel processing in terms of opening valves and closing valves with certain delays using threading in python web app

- Link to video showing parallel pouring: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qKEYoIiZR0NajrIisGp3BHuI4G–HjCr/view?usp=drive_link
- Integrated wheel and arm using handshakes via Serial.println such that arm moves when wheel done spinning and vise versa:

Next Week Goals:
- Scale out the dispensing system for 6 drinks
- Figure out pouring rates in terms of flow rate and timing
- Test out full integration multiple times
- Build platforms for orientation of system accordingly
